Hybrid Minds

When I heard Hybrid Minds “Youth” bootleg I immediately fell in love with them.  So dope.  I love this mix of theirs cuz I’ll be honest, sometimes I’m not just trying to listen to a mix of all the newest shit.  I was just telling my friend Daniela yesterday that I am totally an old lady when it comes to my dnb, I don’t mind seeking out new stuff and checking out all the latest tunes but even when I’m mixing, I love to bring in all my old faves to round out the mix.  There are just soooo many classic tunes that add so much goodness to a mix.  Sometimes I find it boring just to play all new tunes just cuz their the newest. *shrugs*

Dj SS – Black

It may sound strange but I think about Whitney Houston alot.  LOL.  I’ve always loved her.  My fave song of hers is How Will I Know.  That song is on my gym mix so I pretty much listen to it every day and therefore end up thinking about how sad it is that she’s not alive anymore.  She may have had her drug problems but I just loved her music and she is definitely missed.

I love the track Black.  Not only because it samples Whitney but also because it was one of the first dnb songs I heard back in ’93.  It pretty much changed my life cuz I haven’t stopped listened to jungle/dnb since then.  I was so obsessed with Dj SS back then!

I like doing a Formation Colours series mix every now and again and I just did one this morning so I’ve got Black on the brain. ❤  

This is the John B VIP which I’m also quite fond of.

Too Much Alix Is Never Enough

I remember when I first became obsessed with Alix Perez.  It was this collab that he did with Specific called Lovebug back in like 2004 or 2005 I think.  I was starting to ween away from my angry noisy dnb phase and full on becoming obsessed with liquidy, melodic goodness, also anyone who is gonna sample Jodeci is #1 in my book. 😉  

I still appreciate all the other dnb genres but I think that liquid funk is the soundtrack to my soul… dramatic much?   LOL.  Really though, it never ceases to brighten up my day.  Hearts all around.

 

 

Really loving this bassline to Playing Games.

Summer Anthem Kiki

I’ve been spending a lot of time mixing records in my mum’s basement.  The other day I spent like 5 hours just mixing summer anthems of yesteryear.  🙂

I am an old lady now and don’t keep up as much with what would be considered the anthems of the summer but for me this year it was definitely the Calibre track “Running.”  It was the soundtrack to my summer in Indonesia and as the summer draws to a close it still evokes lovely images of sunny beaches, multicoloured cocktails and beautiful blue skies. ❤
